Suppose a horse leans against a wall as in the figure below.

1 answer:

8 0

The force the horse and the rider exerts on the wall is equal to the weight combined acting in the opposite direction:

<h3>Force</h3>

Given Data

mass of horse and rider = 575kg

Force acting on wall = ??

When a body of mass rests on a surface, it exerts a force equal to the weight of the mass but opposite in direct on the mass/object

hence the force is computed as

Force = mass * acceleration

Force = 575 * 9.81

Force = 5640.75N

I would love to stretch a wire from our house to the Shop so I can 'call' my husband in for meals. The wire could be tightened t

dezoksy [38]

Note: I'm not sure what do you mean by "weight 0.05 kg/L". I assume it means the mass per unit of length, so it should be "0.05 kg/m".

Solution:
The fundamental frequency in a standing wave is given by
$f= \frac{1}{2L} \sqrt{ \frac{T}{m/L} }$
where L is the length of the string, T the tension and m its mass. If we plug the data of the problem into the equation, we find
$f= \frac{1}{2 \cdot 24 m} \sqrt{ \frac{240 N}{0.05 kg/m} }=1.44 Hz$

The wavelength of the standing wave is instead twice the length of the string:
$\lambda=2 L= 2 \cdot 24 m=48 m$

So the speed of the wave is
$v=\lambda f = (48 m)(1.44 Hz)=69.1 m/s$

And the time the pulse takes to reach the shop is the distance covered divided by the speed:
$t= \frac{L}{v}= \frac{24 m}{69.1 m/s}=0.35 s$

Find the quantity of heat needed

krok68 [10]

Answer:

Approximately $3.99\times 10^{4}\; \rm J$ (assuming that the melting point of ice is $0\; \rm ^\circ C$ .)

Explanation:

Convert the unit of mass to kilograms, so as to match the unit of the specific heat capacity of ice and of water.

$\begin{aligned}m&= 100\; \rm g \times \frac{1\; \rm kg}{1000\; \rm g} \\ &= 0.100\; \rm kg\end{aligned}$

The energy required comes in three parts:

Energy required to raise the temperature of that $0.100\; \rm kg$ of ice from $(-10\; \rm ^\circ C)$ to $0\; \rm ^\circ C$ (the melting point of ice.)
Energy required to turn $0.100\; \rm kg$ of ice into water while temperature stayed constant.
Energy required to raise the temperature of that newly-formed $0.100\; \rm kg$ of water from $0\; \rm ^\circ C$ to $10\;\ rm ^\circ C$ .

The following equation gives the amount of energy $Q$ required to raise the temperature of a sample of mass $m$ and specific heat capacity $c$ by $\Delta T$ :

$Q = c \cdot m \cdot \Delta T$ ,

where

$c$ is the specific heat capacity of the material,
$m$ is the mass of the sample, and
$\Delta T$ is the change in the temperature of this sample.

For the first part of energy input, $c(\text{ice}) = 2100\; \rm J \cdot kg \cdot K^{-1}$ whereas $m = 0.100\; \rm kg$ . Calculate the change in the temperature:

$\begin{aligned}\Delta T &= T(\text{final}) - T(\text{initial}) \\ &= (0\; \rm ^\circ C) - (-10\; \rm ^\circ C) \\ &= 10\; \rm K\end{aligned}$ .

Calculate the energy required to achieve that temperature change:

$\begin{aligned}Q_1 &= c(\text{ice}) \cdot m(\text{ice}) \cdot \Delta T\\ &= 2100\; \rm J \cdot kg \cdot K^{-1} \\ &\quad\quad \times 0.100\; \rm kg \times 10\; \rm K\\ &= 2.10\times 10^{3}\; \rm J\end{aligned}$ .

Similarly, for the third part of energy input, $c(\text{water}) = 4200\; \rm J \cdot kg \cdot K^{-1}$ whereas $m = 0.100\; \rm kg$ . Calculate the change in the temperature:

$\begin{aligned}\Delta T &= T(\text{final}) - T(\text{initial}) \\ &= (10\; \rm ^\circ C) - (0\; \rm ^\circ C) \\ &= 10\; \rm K\end{aligned}$ .

Calculate the energy required to achieve that temperature change:

$\begin{aligned}Q_3&= c(\text{water}) \cdot m(\text{water}) \cdot \Delta T\\ &= 4200\; \rm J \cdot kg \cdot K^{-1} \\ &\quad\quad \times 0.100\; \rm kg \times 10\; \rm K\\ &= 4.20\times 10^{3}\; \rm J\end{aligned}$ .

The second part of energy input requires a different equation. The energy $Q$ required to melt a sample of mass $m$ and latent heat of fusion $L_\text{f}$ is:

$Q = m \cdot L_\text{f}$ .

Apply this equation to find the size of the second part of energy input:

$\begin{aligned}Q_2&= m \cdot L_\text{f}\\&= 0.100\; \rm kg \times 3.36\times 10^{5}\; \rm J\cdot kg^{-1} \\ &= 3.36\times 10^{4}\; \rm J\end{aligned}$ .

Find the sum of these three parts of energy:

$\begin{aligned}Q &= Q_1 + Q_2 + Q_3 = 3.99\times 10^{4}\; \rm J\end{aligned}$ .

A small 18 kilogram canoe is floating downriver at a speed of 1 m/s. What is the canoe's kinetic energy?

In-s [12.5K]

Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed²).

A Physicist in the canoe, or on a raft floating downriver next to the canoe, will say that the canoe's kinetic energy is zero.

A Physicist on the riverbank, watching the canoe drift by at 1 m/s, will say that its kinetic energy is 9 Joules.

They're both correct.
